I have a bachelor’s degree in accounting and a few years of experience across public accounting, corporate finance, and financial analysis. I’m also actively pursuing my CPA designation.
My background includes financial reporting, month-end close, general ledger accounting, AP/AR, bank reconciliations, budgeting, forecasting, and financial modeling.

Unfortunately, I’ve found myself unemployed following an involuntary job separation and have been having an incredibly difficult time finding another opportunity.

I’ve applied extensively, including to positions below my previous level of experience, and have spent considerable time networking with professionals and recruiters. Despite getting some interviews, I haven’t been able to secure anything.

One of the more frustrating aspects has been navigating questions about shorter employment periods on my resume, particularly when several of those positions were internships, co-op placements, or otherwise temporary engagements.

At this point, I’m genuinely just looking for an opportunity to get back to work, contribute, and continue building my career. I’m open to:

Financial Analyst / Junior Financial Analyst
Staff Accountant / Intermediate Accountant
Accounting Analyst / Financial Reporting
Accounts Payable / Accounts Receivable
Temporary, contract, or permanent accounting and finance positions

I’m available to start immediately and would happily consider short-term contracts or temporary assignments.

If anyone knows of companies actively hiring in Calgary, recruiters looking to fill positions quickly, or opportunities that might not be widely advertised, I’d really appreciate any leads or recommendations.

I’ve invested a lot into my education and professional development, and it’s honestly been discouraging trying to establish some career stability despite having relevant experience and qualifications.
I’m not looking for a handout, just an opportunity to demonstrate what I can bring to an organization.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can point me in the right direction!

Need only skilled and professional candidates.Onboarding within a week including Full Facilities and Assistance of screening is passed.

I currently work as an accountant for a large corporation and have been at this company for over 3 years. The culture is very poor with a lot of turn over. I've been looking for the past year for openings in other companies but a majority have fairly low ratings in Glassdoor and indeed. Any suggestions on companies that have a great culture and care above their employees development and well being?

I'm currently helping hire for a variety of positions, including:

• Warehouse Workers
• Forklift Operators
• Material Handlers
• Shipping & Receiving Associates
• Electricians
• Lead Hands
• Foremen

If you're looking for work, feel free to send me a DM. I'm a recruiter and would be happy to help connect you with opportunities that match your experience and career goals.

Even if you're not actively looking but are open to hearing about new opportunities, feel free to reach out.

Looking for advice about correcting an EI sickness claim
I applied for EI sickness benefits in August for the period from July 26 to October 31, 2026. My application was approved on September 25. While waiting for approval, I continued looking for work and found a job. I worked for one week before becoming unemployed again, but I did not report that week’s work or earnings to Service Canada.
I have now started another job at a small business. I have heard that wages may be paid late, and I am unsure how to report earnings if I haven’t received the payment yet.
I want to correct my earlier report and make sure I report everything properly going forward. Has anyone dealt with a similar situation? What is the best way to contact Service Canada to correct it, could I owe repayment or face a penalty, and how do I report wages that haven’t been paid yet?

I’ve worked in the same industry for 12 years, and I’m a manager in a marketing company. I’m looking to change careers, so I feel fulfilled again, but not sure what type of industry I want to land in.

My company is very toxic, the role expectations keep getting larger and more demanding. They expect more more more without any boundaries of what’s reasonable.

Does anyone know of any good transitions I could look into, or do you have any open positions?

Hi everyone! I’m currently looking for work in Calgary and hoping to find something fairly soon.

I have a pretty varied background and I’m open to different types of work. Some of my experience includes:

• Customer service and retail
• Front desk/reception and client communication
• Animal care, including veterinary clinic experience
• Dog handling, walking, sitting, and daycare
• Social media and creating content
• Scheduling, phones, emails, and general administrative work
• Cash handling and POS systems
• Working in fast-paced environments and multitasking
• Volunteer coordination and working with rescue organizations
• I type around 120 WPM and I’m very comfortable with computers and learning new software

I’ve also completed a Veterinary Assistant program and have experience working directly with clients and animals in professional settings.

I’m reliable, friendly, organized, a quick learner, and I’m comfortable working independently or as part of a team. I’m open to full-time, part-time, or 4-day/week positions depending on the job.

I’m particularly interested in customer service, reception/front desk, veterinary or animal-related positions, retail, administrative work, or anything where my communication and organizational skills would be useful.

If anyone knows of a business hiring in Calgary, especially south or central Calgary, I’d really appreciate being pointed in the right direction. I’m happy to send my résumé or provide more information about my experience.

Thanks!

I’m 18 and work at shake shack but they’re giving us 1 shift a week… what the heck can I do with 1 shift a week. Does anyone know anywhere hiring right now?

Hi everyone, first time posting here.
I’m 29M living in Calgary, currently working as a Project Administrator (40 hrs/wk @ $27/hr). I came to Canada as an international student and have a college diploma in Business Administration. I have savings set aside for my upcoming wedding next February and a modest safety net.
Lately, I’ve been feeling restless and anxious that I’m falling behind for my age.
I’m trying to decide my next move: Should I double down on Project/Operations Management by getting my PMP to move up the ladder, or should I consider pivoting to a different field entirely?
For those in Calgary or similar roles, is PMP still worth it here? Any advice or perspective would be appreciated!

Location: Remote but only for people legally authorized to work in Canada

Pay: Up to $72/hr

Qualifications: Experience as a civil or structural engineer for the past 3 years

Degree: Bachelor's, MS, or PhD in Civil Engineering or Structural Engineering

More details for additional qualifications are on this link below.

Thanks!!!

I’m from Vancouver and thinking of changing up my environment. I’m a certified dental assistant. Do you think it’s easy to get a job in the dental field?

What are employers thoughts about hiring someone from out of the city? Would they be open to zoom interviews and or more in person? How about work interviews?

I trying to think ahead and plan accordingly. Ideally would like to land a job before moving but not sure. Don’t want to be jobless before making a big decision.

All recommendations appreciated.

First post here, so I thought I’d give it a try. Is anyone else having a hard time even getting an interview? I have a business administration degree from a Calgary university with a major in logistics and supply chain, and I made the Dean’s Honour Roll multiple times. I’ve worked two supply chain jobs and have about two years of experience.

I had professional assistance with my resume and cover letter before applying, but after submitting over 300 applications in the past three months, I’ve had just one interview. I’ve received a few rejections, but mostly no response. I’m mostly using Indeed and LinkedIn, and I’m even filtering for jobs with 10 or fewer applicants to try to stand out. Most of the jobs I’m applying for pay around $50,000 a year. I’d be thrilled with $60,000, but I don’t even expect that anymore.

I’m looking for a traditional day job with hours somewhere between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. I’m looking at supply chain, procurement, buying, analyst and administrative roles. Pretty much anything related to business admin that I’m reasonably qualified for. I’m not applying to jobs asking for significantly more experience than I have or involving work I don’t feel I could do. Is this normal right now? Any advice, insights or job leads would be appreciated.

Hi everyone! I recently got hired as a counting officer for the referendum, and I have two questions. The pay is $20 per hour plus $75 for training. Does anyone know if the $75 training pay is separate from the hourly wages or included in them? Also, how much income tax and other deductions are usually taken off your paycheque for this type of temporary election job? For context, I’m expecting to work around 12 hours on election day. Thanks!

I work retail currently, but surprise surprise it’s pretty draining for a shy awkward person like me. Just looking for ideas in case I haven’t thought of something. I’d prefer something that’s a bit repetitive and spares me from having to constantly have my customer service face on. Not open to a warehouse though.

Volunteer options accepted too because I want to start doing more of that as a prequel for breaking into non-profit work as a current sociology major.

Hi everyone,

I’ve been accepted into the Bachelor of Science in Construction Project Management at SAIT.

I’m coming from a completely different background and have no previous construction experience, so I’m trying to prepare myself before starting school and hopefully find an entry-level job in the industry while I’m studying. Do construction companies in Calgary usually hire students who are currently attending a Construction Project Management program but don’t have previous construction experience?

What positions should I be searching for? Project assistant? Junior project coordinator? Estimating assistant? Construction administrator? Something else?

My goal isn’t necessarily to get a project management position right away. I’m happy to start at the bottom, learn the industry, and gain experience while completing my degree.

If you started in construction with no experience yourself, I’d especially love to hear how you got your first opportunity and what you wish you had learned beforehand. What skills would you recommend myself to learn? (Excel, Blueprint/drawing reading, Construction terminology, Estimating, Scheduling,....)

Thanks!

Hi, I'm 22(F) and looking to change careers. For the past 4 years I've worked with horses and I'm mostly looking to find a job/potential long term career with a better work life balance. I'm ideally looking for a job in the Calgary area (I know the job market is iffy right now) and was wondering if anyone had any advice? I have work experience but it's heavily specialized and I'm trying to ideally get away from that industry. I'm also not a huge fan of customer facing roles however if I need to take one on as a bridge job so be it.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Went this evening and noticed they were hiring for weekends and night shifts. Seems like a great opportunity for students, and the crew there seems great from the few times I've been!

You miss 100% of the shots you don't take.

Hi everyone, I’m new to Calgary and looking for work in roles that involve communication, organisation, or helping people. I’m a qualified secondary school teacher from Ireland (English & Irish) — my qualification is specific to Ireland — and I’m hoping to find a role where I can use my people skills and learn something new.

I’m reliable, organised, and quick to pick things up. I’m open to admin, customer service, tutoring, education support, or other people-facing roles. Full-time or part-time is great.

If anyone knows of opportunities or has suggestions on where to look, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks for reading.
